PROBLEM: AMS40 Crashes With Page.HideObject and Dialog.MessageBox
Document ID: IR04048The information in this article applies to:
- AutoPlay Media Studio 4.0
SUMMARY
This article explains the problem where your application will crash if you use Page.HideObject and Dialog.MessageBox on the On Stop event of your media player object.
DISCUSSION
If you attempt to hide the media player object, and then display a message box as in the following example, your application will generate a runtime error and crash:
Page.HideObject("MediaPlayer1");
%Result% = Dialog.MessageBox("Title", "Message", Ok, Question);
This is a known bug, and should not be done. Instead, display the message box before you hide the media player object. These actions when implemented as follows will not crash your application:
%Result% = Dialog.MessageBox("Title", "Message", Ok, Question);
Page.HideObject("MediaPlayer1");
